The Devil Went Down to IHOP

Testing this at my local meta this Thursday. The theory seems solid - E3 and Faust go together very well, Pancake Party is ludicrous with Faust, and Queztal is the best runner to use with E3's. Mimic for swordsman, architect, etc. Anarch ice destruction is good. Anarch economy is good. Inject and Street Peddler dig like mad. I think Ice Carver is the secret sauce to make Faust accesses a lot cheaper. Deck seems very promising.

I like the idea of using Ice Carver to mitigate Faust. Would including I've Had Worse" make sense to protect against net damage you might go up against? Maybe take one point of net damage from pup to fuel Faust in the middle of the run if you get down to 1 card?

Problem with Ice carver is that turing is now str 4 on remotes so instead of using david to get through, you have a problem.

My answer to Turing is probably just Parasucker. It's obnoxious for sure, but any ice I can't kill (basically just Lotus Field and Architect) my breakers can deal with just fine.

I've Had Worse is a card I was considering, but for right now I'll chance running into Snare! in exchange for the shaper tricks I get from Street Peddler and the digging and possible credit refund from Inject. Definitely open to the idea though.
